Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ's)
|
Summary:
How frequently should our
web servers be rebooted? What files should be cleaned out regularly? How can I
be sure the system is running at optimum performance?
Full Article:
All of your questions can be
summed up in one common phrase - "That depends..."
You're obviously aware of the logs that build up and need cleaning out
periodically; if not take a stroll through the directories and you'll see
them. One of them is a bear and grows large fast (psftaccess? webaccess?). They
do need to be cleaned out, but how often depends on how heavy traffic is and how
big your hard drive is. Take note each day of the size of the individual log
files and record their size. You'll see a trend and be able to extrapolate how
often you need to clean things out. An upgrade to PeopleTools 8.19 would get you
some help with the logs and allow you to specify that they archive themselves
based on a schedule you dictate. This makes it easy to delete them without
stopping the servers.
Reboots:
We end up rebooting every three weeks or so for some maintenance, not because
the servers need it. Once again, it will take experimentation and observation on
your part to figure out how often you need to do this. *Questions excerpted from
